Easy every day.
Ready for more.

Pro handles the heavier work: multi-core processing, encryption, volumes and batch jobs. Advanced options expand when you need them.

PRO

Not just fast.

Choose Automatic, Efficient, Balanced or Maximum to match your workflow. Use your Mac’s resources to accelerate compression and extraction where the format and task support parallel processing, and see core usage in real time.

Automatic
Picks Balanced or Maximum by job size, and eases off in Low Power Mode or when your Mac runs hot.
Efficient
Runs on efficiency cores, one job at a time.
Balanced
Leans on performance cores and leaves headroom for your other work.
Maximum
Uses every core and runs more jobs side by side.

Acceleration depends on the format, file structure and task. A single file in a ZIP is limited to single-core processing. Figures shown are illustrative.

PRO⌑

Private files. Protected archives.

Create AES-256 encrypted ZIP and 7Z archives, with optional encrypted file names in 7Z. Save extraction passwords in your Mac’s keychain and try them automatically.

PRO⋮

Big files. Easy delivery.

Create split ZIP or 7Z archives, or split and join any file without compression. Open multi-volume archives and see exactly which volume is missing.

PRO≡

More jobs. Less juggling.

Compress and extract in batches. Manage your queue in Task Center: pause, resume, cancel or retry, then choose what happens after completion.

LOCAL BY DESIGN

Your files.
On your Mac.

Files and passwords are never uploaded. Zip7zX checks disk space, stages extracted files before moving them, and handles conflicts your way. Source deletion goes through the Trash, with confirmation.

05 / QUESTIONS, ANSWERED

A few things worth knowing.

Is RAR extraction really free forever?+

Yes. Single-volume RAR / RAR5 extraction is free forever, including existing password-protected single-volume archives. Multi-volume RAR recognition and extraction require Pro.

Are there size or usage limits in Free?+

No size, file-count or usage limits, and no ads. Free covers single-archive essentials. Multi-volume archives, batch work, encryption creation, Task Center and advanced performance require Pro.

File names from a Windows ZIP show up garbled on my Mac. Does Zip7zX fix that?+

Yes. Zip7zX detects GB18030, Shift-JIS, EUC-KR and other file-name encodings automatically, so Chinese, Japanese and Korean names from Windows archives read correctly on the Mac. You can also switch the encoding by hand in the archive window.

Can I add, delete or rename files inside an archive?+

The current version does not support editing files inside an archive. You can browse, search, preview and extract, then create a new archive after making changes.

Why doesn’t a large ZIP use every core?+

Parallel processing depends on the format and task structure. A single file in a ZIP is limited by the format. Zip7zX explains this and suggests 7Z where appropriate.

Is Pro a subscription?+

No auto-renewal. Choose $3.99/yr (a one-time purchase covering a year, it simply expires) or $8.99 for a lifetime license with updates included.

What happens when the trial ends?+

Every install starts with a 14-day full Pro trial, no sign-up. When it ends the free features keep working forever; only multi-volume, batch, encryption creation and advanced performance need Pro.

Website edition or Mac App Store edition?+

Same features. The website edition is bought on this page as a license key; the Mac App Store edition is coming later with an in-app purchase. Purchases are separate across channels, the trial is shared. One Pro license covers one Mac; contact support to move it.

Do you offer refunds?+

Yes, within 14 days of purchase, no questions asked. Email us with your order number; see the refund policy for details.

Which Macs are supported? Do I need extra software?+

macOS 14 Sonoma or later, on Apple Silicon and Intel. Engines are bundled with the app. No Homebrew and no runtime component downloads are required.

Will I get duplicate menus with Rightora?+

No. Once Zip7zX is installed, Rightora hides its own compression actions so the context menu stays tidy.
